For Baby when Teething

Allenburys

RUSKS

Lightly malted, delightfully trip and wholesome, the Allenbarys Rusks are designed to help baby when teething. Childres nibble them insthurtively, to that the cutting of the milk-teeth is aided and the trioblesome and painful process shortened. Moreover, the Raks soften in the Bale onch mouth, and, being safely and caily swallowed, provide a variation in dietary much needed at this period. They give baly the graffitation which comes from the Bras experience of swalloiring whid food.

After this they started to attack complainant and the manager of the boarding house, noticing a fracas, ordered the door to be closed in order that the in- truders might not escape.

Mr. Lindsell said that in view of the fact that the first defendant had already been a week in police custody it would be sufficient i he signed a personal bond of $100 to be of good behaviour for 12 months.

The other two men, who were Government employees, being en- gaged as lift conductors in the new Fire Station building were fined $15 each or in default fourteen days hard labour. In doing so Mr. Lindsell said that being Govern- ment employees. they ought to know better than behave in such á nanner.
